If you have an Oculus VR headset and were thinking about deleting your Facebook account in order to go off the social media grid, you may want to reconsider. If you completely delete the Facebook account linked to your Oculus device, you will also lose access to all VR games you purchased. You won't be able to get them back if you make a new account, either.You're required to link a Facebook account when using the Oculus Quest 2 headset, and if your Facebook account isn't in good standing, you will not be able to use the Quest 2 at all. Because of this connection, you must keep that account to have access to the purchases you've made. You don't necessarily have to link a Facebook account yet on the older Oculus devices, including the first Quest, but as UploadVR pointed out, support for separate Oculus accounts ends in 2023 and then all users will need Facebook.If you deactivate your Facebook account instead of permanently deleting it, you also won't be able to access any of your Oculus information. However, this can be reversed by reactivating it, while the deletion method does not have an "undo." If you make a new account, you'll have to purchase all that content again.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Arcades have changed dramatically over the last few decades, both in their prevalence and the games within, but their existence goes back much further than that. In the documentary series Arcade Dreams, which is currently raising funds on Kickstarter, Rock Steady Media aims to show how the industry evolved from simple mechanical amusements to advanced video games and VR."Starting with the mechanical penny arcades of the early 1900s, the documentary series chronicles the evolution of arcade gaming from mechanical marvels through to classic cabinets, crazy rides, and the ultra-immersive VR experiences of today," the creators said in a press release.Though not expected until 2022, director Zach Weddington and his team have already captured hundreds of hours of footage spanning several decades of arcade games, and the series will feature interviews with arcade legends like Gary Stern of Stern Pinball and Eugene Jarvis. Jarvis practically invented the twin-stick shooter with classics like Robotron 2084 and Smash TV. His company Raw Thrills is also responsible for countless modern arcade cabinets.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

One of the legends you're tasked with investigating in Pokemon Sword and Shield's Crown Tundra DLC revolves around a brand-new Legendary Pokemon named Calyrex. In ages past, Calyrex was worshipped by the denizens of the Crown Tundra as a king. Over time, however, people's belief in the Pokemon faded, and its powers waned in turn. It falls to you to help restore Calyrex's power, and one of the ways to do that is by reuniting it with its steed. Crown Tundra spoilers follow.Shortly after you meet Calyrex, the Legendary Pokemon asks for your help in locating its loyal steed. As it turns out, this steed is one of two alternate Legendary horse Pokemon: the Ice type Glastrier or the Ghost type Spectrier. Much in the way you could choose which Urshifu your Kubfu evolves into in the Isle of Armor expansion, which steed Calyrex rides is entirely up to you. However, you can only choose one of them, and your choice is permanent, so you'll need to think carefully before you make your decision.How To Choose A SteedAfter you complete the introductory Dynamax Adventure and earn Dynite Ore, you'll be able to purchase a bag of carrot seeds from the farmer in Freezington, the small village located near the Crown Tundra station. These seeds can be used to grow either an Iceroot Carrot or a Shaderoot Carrot, which in turn will determine which of the two steeds you summon.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Pokemon Sword and Shield's Crown Tundra DLC sends you on an expedition around the titular arctic region to investigate a number of Pokemon legends, including one revolving around the Legendary giants Registeel, Regirock, and Regice. You'll need to catch all three of them before you can encounter the DLC's two new Regis, Regieleki and Regidrago, but they're all sealed away in shrines scattered around the Crown Tundra. Here's what you'll need to do to enter the shrines and catch the Regis.How To Get RegisteelThe first shrine you'll likely come across houses Registeel. The Steel type's shrine is located in the Giant's Bed just outside of Freezington, making it hard to miss.Before you can enter the shrine, you'll need to open the door by cracking the following riddle: "Let ring the piercing note that will wake the giant of steel." Although this hint is quite vague, all you need to do to open the door is whistle by pressing the left stick in. Note that you can't be riding your bike when you attempt to open the door, as pressing the stick in that situation will cause you to ring its bell rather than whistle, which won't work.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Now, however, Marky Mark himself has released a video of himself in what appears to be his Sully outfit.The leaked photos from a Berlin shoot in September showed Wahlberg and Nathan Drake actor Tom Holland filming a scene together.

The newest James Bond film, No Time To Die, has been finished and ready to go for months now, but MGM has delayed it numerous times due to COVID-19. A report from Bloomberg stated that MGM pitched the streaming rights to Netflix, Apple, and Amazon, but so far, no deal has been reached, and it sounds like that may never happen.Separately, Variety reported that MGM offered a one-year license for No Time To Die for $600 million. Additionally, MGM is said to have considered releasing the movie on its own through a paid video-on-demand option, similar to how Disney handled Mulan. However, Deadline reported that neither Netflix, Apple, nor Amazon came back to the table with even half of the reported $600 million one-year license fee.

One of the big selling points of Sony's PlayStation 5 has been the ultra-fast loading from the system's SSD, which means that games will load extremely fast. However, some new patches for old games have shown that incredibly fast load times are now possible in some PS4 titles, too--even without an SSD.VGC has reported that several older Sony titles have received updates recently, likely to prepare them for backwards compatibility, and at least one of them seems to have drastically cut down its load times in the process. In the video below from ElAnalistaDeBits, you can see a before-and-after comparison of The Last Of Us Remastered loading on PS4, before and after the patch. It shows that the initial 90-second load has now been cut down to just under 14 seconds. Reloading a save file can take over 2 minutes in the pre-patch version, but now loads seem to hover at around the same 14-second point.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

The Suicide Squad is releasing in 2021, and a new Empire cover story has shown off the movie's full Squad cast all together. This has started a new wave of discussion about the upcoming sequel/reboot, and director James Gunn (Guardians of the Galaxy) has jumped into the fray to talk about his approach--and the fact that a lot of the characters on this cover won't make it through the movie.Responding to a tweet asserting that Harley Quinn has "franchise armor" in the film (meaning that DC would not let Gunn kill her because they have long-term plans for the character), Gunn said that's not the case. "They gave me carte blanche to do what I wanted," he said, assuring fans that he can kill anyone he wants to.No character was protected by DC. They gave me carte blanche to do what I wanted. That was one of the things we agreed to before I came to work for them. I wasn't looking for shock value but I wanted the audience to know anything could happen. #StoryReignsSupreme #TheSuicideSquad https://t.co/VxH2ChdqWf — James Gunn (@JamesGunn) October 24, 2020The "canon" on The Suicide Squad is a bit murky, regarding where it fits in relation to DC's numerous other movies, so whether or not deaths in the film will have a long-term impact on future DC films remains to be seen. But, for this film at least, it sounds like a lot of characters are going to die.Gunn fanned the flames more with a follow-up tweet, asking "what two characters" fans think will survive The Suicide Squad. That doesn't mean he's directly saying that only two major characters will make it through, but he's certainly implying the possibility. What two characters do you think are most likely to survive #TheSuicideSquad? @SuicideSquadWB https://t.co/7ry3GBQ20W — James Gunn (@JamesGunn) October 24, 2020Adding up responses, one Twitter user found that Harley Quinn (113 votes), King Shark (58 votes) and Polka Dot Man (31 votes) led the way in votes. Sorry, Weasel. Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com
